Swapoff used old_block_size from swap_info outside of swapon_mutex so it could be overwritten by concurrent swapon. The race has visible effect only if more than one swap block device exists with different block sizes (e.g. /dev/sda1 with block size 4096 and /dev/sdb1 with 512). In such case it leads to setting the blocksize of swapped off device with wrong blocksize. The bug can be triggered with multiple concurrent swapoff and swapon: 0. Swap for some device is on. 1. swapoff: First the swapoff is called on this device and "struct swap_info_struct *p" is assigned. This is done under swap_lock however this lock is released for the call try_to_unuse(). 2. swapon: After the assignment above (and before acquiring swapon_mutex & swap_lock by swapoff) the swapon is called on the same device. The p->old_block_size is assigned to the value of block_size the device. This block size should be the same as previous but sometimes it is not. The swapon ends successfully. 3. swapoff: Swapoff resumes, grabs the locks and mutex and continues to disable this swap device. Now it sets the block size to value taken from swap_info which was overwritten by swapon in 2.
